Mind Map Vocab
Here you will find an ongoing list of all of the vocabulary terms as we cover them in this course. You will be creating a mind map that will display your understanding of each vocabulary word and how it relates to other vocabulary words we learn. You may take this project in any direction you'd like, as long as you have all of the vocabulary words listed (from the following list) on your mind map.
To make your mind map, go to: mindmeister.com
Note: You may add more/other words to your mind map than the ones listed here! These are just the minimum/starting point! Also, you have the ability to add pictures, links (to websites, videos, audio), notes, and anything else you can think of to help show your understanding and help you study these words throughout this course.
